How UA6249 actually runs

Pro Flight Search has tracked every published board update for UA6249 across the IAD and MSY boards: schedule changes, gate pushes and actual clocks. Early read — pattern not clear yet. Only 2 completed legs so far: left noticeably late (~26 min) but landed about 16 min early. Not enough to call it.

The verdict above is that record speaking, so it reflects how UA6249 operates rather than what the timetable promises. Numbers refresh as new flights operate.
